Jorge Sierra Morales, Master Mask Maker, from the Lake Patzcuaro area, in the state of Michoacán. He began learning to make masks from his grandfather at the age of 8 and after 20 years Jorge has perfected his art.
- His one of a kind masks are based on traditional masks and are made of the Copal tree.
- His masks vary from the devils, demons, animals and Satan himself. These vary from near normal human faces to those with wild and/or grotesque features, with human features, animal features or both. Depictions of old pre Hispanic gods remain in masks.
- Tlaloc was commonly depicted as having serpents around his eyes and with the fangs of a viper.
- These elements can be found in devil masks today. Tezcatlipoca was a night god, whose colors were black and red. These are also applied to devil masks.
- Please check all photos due to horns having paint chips.
- This mask will be extremely well packed and insured.
